This painting is from Shelter Island in San Diego. <\/p>\n<p>Nothing special about my approach here.  It&#8217;s a typical alla prima painting starting from the white.  I don&#8217;t always work this way.

Actually the best piece of art advice I ever got was, &#8220;only follow advice if you are sure you understand it &#8211; and if you want to.&#8221;  <\/p>\n<p>So why do people say &#8220;don&#8217;t use a pencil&#8221;?  Two reasons that I can see- one, beginning students have a tendency to get too tight with the drawing and two, because if the pencil drawing is wrong, your whole painting will be off.  But I say, do what works for you.   <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/kevinmaddoginman\/8652525257\/\" title=\"Plein Air in progress by Kevin Inman Art, on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8252\/8652525257_f1048ddcb4.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" alt=\"Plein Air in progress\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>So here I&#8217;ve completed the plein air, alla prima portion of the painting.  The next step was to leave it in a stack of paintings for several weeks\/months and then I pulled it out, touched it up, signed it, and here it is.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A nice sunny day at Shelter Island in Point Loma.
